Amiena and I wrapped up our first project together, and I'm very excited about it. Full of soulful songs.. and beats and pads (a personal favorite of mine!). Check it out on iTunes! And I will post a clip here, too, of the single featuring my talented friend Chris Mann. Amiena and I are gearing up for a new project.. more on this to come..

I recently got to work with a great artist and friend of mine, Meiko, for a Tiffany campaign. She's really talented and hilarious on stage... She's got a new record coming out, soon, but this is a clip of a song we did for the campaign. The task was to re-do two jazz standards in a unique way.

I've begun traveling the world with CCM artist Michael W Smith. Along with some US and Canada shows, we have recently done Australia, Brazil and South Africa. I've been mixing the live shows, as well as working on a top secret project.. Shhh! (I'm only saying this because Michael himself announced it from stage.. so it can't be that secret.. right?)
Darren Hayes - Secret Codes and Battleships (2011)
Check out 'Roses' from the new album from Darren Hayes titled "Secret Codes and Battleships". Darren is an extremely talented artist with a distinct voice, and it was a real treat to work with he and producer Walter A on the song (I programmed the track). I'll post a clip shortly, but really.. just go get it on iTunes! :)

Well this is nice..! A song Greg Sczebel and I did together last year for his Christmas went to #4 on the holiday chart (surrounded by many Justin Biebers..haha) Greg.. you just need a paternity suit filed against you and you'll shoot straight to the top!!! (too soon...?)

I'm writing from the road, where I'm on tour with Mat Kearney ("Young Love" album). Crowds have been great. And while I'm out, I've been working on my mobile rig doing remixes and production from hotel rooms to green rooms to the back lounge of our bus. It's actually been a lot of fun working this way, and I am in the middle of putting together an even better mobile rig than what I've got (some Adam studio monitors, an Apogee interface etc in a pelican case) so I can do some more mobile recording and projects. Next up.. rent a boat, and write at sea. But I digress. It's tough being away from home for so long but it's a great group of people that I have been friends with for many years. And the energy of the crowds has been AMAZING!! Also.. check out the support band 'Leagues'. Half of them are also playing in Mat's band, and they're really great. I'm going to nerd out on my next post and include photos of the mobile rig I'm putting together :)

My friends (the one and only Shaun Huberts and Johnny "5" Andrews of the Tegan and Sara band) have started a band of their own, Rococode, with the lovely talented Laura Smith and her Andrew as "front people". I just finished a remix of their new song 'Empire'. Check it out on Soundcloud below:
